Thirty-four hours later, a magnitude 7.1 earthquake hit the same area \u2013 the largest to strike California in 20 years. Shaking was felt across California, Arizona, and Nevada. The earthquakes killed one person, injured 25, and caused surface ruptures stretching 30 miles with ground displacement exceeding six feet. Total damage exceeded $5.3 billion. Learn about the impact of the Ridgecrest earthquakes and how they became a case study for understanding earthquake cascades and stress transfer between intersecting fault systems. We\u2019ll also share an important message about safety and preparedness. &amp;nbsp;  \u23f1\ufe0f  Timestamps INTRODUCTION 00:00 \u2013 Welcome Message 00:12 \u2013 Topic Introduction 2019 EARTHQUAKE FACTS 00:30 \u2013 About Ridgecrest 01:01 \u2013 The Earthquake Sequence 01:41 \u2013 One Death and 25 Injuries 02:03 \u2013 Damage and Economic Impact 02:35 \u2013 Surface Rupture SCIENTIFIC LESSONS 03:05&amp;nbsp; \u2013 Two Perpendicular Fault Systems 03:24&amp;nbsp; \u2013 L-Shaped Rupture Pattern 03:51&amp;nbsp; \u2013 Aftershocks 04:10&amp;nbsp; \u2013 Rethinking Seismic Hazards OUR EXPERIENCE 04:31 \u2013 Did We Feel It? 05:34 \u2013 QuakeFeed Emails 06:01 \u2013 Reaffirming our \u201cWhy\u201d 06:24 \u2013 Preparedness Call to Action CLOSING 06:45 \u2013 Closing Message 07:10 \u2013 Drop, Cover, Hold On Instructions &amp;nbsp;  \ud83d\udcda  Learn More  \ud83d\udd17 QuakeFeed Substack: 2019 Ridgecrest Earthquake Sequence  https:\/\/quakefeed.substack.com\/p\/2019-ridgecrest-earthquake-sequence  \ud83c\udf99\ufe0f QuakeFeed Podcast: Drop, Cover, and Hold On  https:\/\/podcasts.apple.com\/us\/podcast\/drop-cover-hold-on\/id1562704664?i=1000520234015  \ud83d\udd17 CALFIRE: Fireworks Safety https:\/\/readyforwildfire.org\/prevent-wildfire\/fireworks-safety\/ &amp;nbsp;  \ud83d\udcf1  Download QuakeFeed for Real-Time Alerts  Stay informed \u2013 get the QuakeFeed app now: https:\/\/apps.apple.com\/app\/quakefeed-earthquake-alerts\/id403037266 Want to view the 2019 Ridgecrest Earthquake Sequence on an interactive map that shows the epicenter, shaking intensity, and faults?
